The Unitech PA768 runs on Android 12.0.
Yes. We are providers of VeriScan for Android which is compatible with the Unitech PA768. It can be installed via Google Play. This purchase is for the device only. You will download and pay for the VeriScan subscription separately.

After extensive internal testing, we have found that the Unitech PA768 lasts between 16-20 hours of continuous scanning before requiring a recharge. We recommend turning the brightness down to 50% to increase the scanner’s battery life while in use.
The Unitech PA768 has an IP-68 waterproof rating making it spill/droplet proof.
The handheld ID scanner is capable of taking photos, however it uses an auto-focus laser for ID scanning, and so is not capable of both scanning an ID and simultaneously capturing a photo.
The Unitech PA768 has an auto-focus laser ID scanner attached to the top of the device. This allows for extremely rapid, accurate scanning. Scanning IDs using a personal mobile device such as an Android or iOS phone (or iPad) requires use of the device’s camera. This is much slower and not ideal for high volume scanning.
Additionally, most businesses prefer to use a dedicated ID scanner for PII and privacy reasons, as it ensures no personal data is ever cached, stored, or viewed on employee devices.
